welovetrump--2020-03-14--Pelosi Slammed for Attempting to Sneak Pro-Abortion Language into Coronavirus Bill

If Pelosi had successfully gotten this passed by hiding it in the coronavirus bill , then up to $ 1 billion in tax payer funds could have gone to fund abortions .
Fortunatley , the language around abortion funding was caught and was removed from the bill .
But why would Pelosi event attempt to sneak in the language in the first place ?
The Western Journal has more on Pelosi 's move and the White House 's response : Taking advantage of a worldwide pandemic to push for more abortions is something only a mind like that of Nancy @ @ @ @ @ @ @ House officials have claimed that the speaker of the House attempted to include federal funding for abortion in a bill to fight coronavirus , The Daily Caller reported .
Officials told the outlet that during negotiations Pelosi lobbied for “ several ” partisan provisions that made the bill untenable .
She wanted as much as $ 1 billion for reimbursements of laboratory claims , which officials said “ would set a precedent of health spending without protections outlined in the Hyde Amendment.
” The Hyde Amendment stops federal funding from going to clinics @ @ @ @ @ @ @ on a mission to get President Donald Trump to end the Hyde Amendment from day one of his administration and this appears to be the latest , lowest attempt .
“ A new mandatory funding stream that does not have Hyde protections would be unprecedented , ” one White House official told The Daily Caller .
“ Under the guise of protecting people , Speaker Pelosi is working to make sure taxpayer dollars are spent covering abortion — which is not only backwards , but goes against historical norms.
” Another anonymous official @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ slush fund.
” A third asked “ what the Hyde Amendment and abortion have to do with protecting Americans from coronavirus ?
” The abortion funding was eventually pulled out of the negotiations , Politico reported .
And while the White House suggested the lower chamber spend a day or two considering the bill , Pelosi seemed to shoot the idea down .
It appears the coronavirus is n't the only thing we should be worried about these days : we should be on the lookout for Democrats attempting to use this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , this continues to create a stark difference for voters between Trump 's strong leadership ... and Democrats ' attempts to politicize the virus !
Or will they learn their lesson and work with the president to fight for the American people ?
Now is the time for leadership , not politics !

What do abortion and the coronavirus have in common?
Nothing… unless you include the fact that they both kill people.
But that didn’t stop Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi from attempting to sneak pro-abortion language into the coronavirus response bill.
Pelosi has been slammed for attempting to take advantage of a loop hole to fund abortions with tax payer money.
Even MSNBC’s Joy Reid appeared to turn against Pelosi for the brash move.

welovetrump--2020-03-15--Fed Cuts Rate To Near Zero In Emergency Move; President Trump Holds Sunday Press Conference

Folks, we are living in uncertain times.
Perhaps even Biblical times (and that would be the book of the Bible that starts with the letter “R” and comes last).
Even though the stock market soared nearly 2,000 points on Friday, I feared it was a sucker’s bounce.
I fear the economic impacts of this virus will be absolutely devestating.
Folks, you don’t have to have a degree in economics to understand that we have never seen ANYTHING like this.
All major sports leagues shut down.
NCAA tournament shut down.
Travel industry nearly gone.
Now they are shutting down entire cities, including restaurants.
Folks, just ONE of these things in the past has been enough to send the economy into a tailspin, but all of them together?
And on top of a huge pile of debt that has only been building since 2008?
Recipe for disaster.
But that’s not just my opinion, that is apparently the opinion of the Federal Reserve, who just cut rates by a point to near zero in an attempt to use the last ammo it had agains this economic crash.
While rate cuts normally boost an economy, a rate cut can’t fix a broken supply chain or entire cities and industries being shut down.
And I fear the economy will look at the drastic rate cut as a vote of no confidence, leading to a serious market crash.
I’m not here to scare you, but this is reality.
We could be in for trouble in the short term.

welovetrump--2020-03-15--Reports Say President Trump Considering Domestic Travel Restrictions; UK Added To Restricted List

The USA Today confirms:
President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence on Saturday said the government is considering domestic travel restrictions amid the coronavirus pandemic and added United Kingdom and Ireland to the Europe travel restrictions that went into effect late Friday.
They did not offer specifics on domestic flight restrictions but Trump said earlier in the week that they would be considered if "an area gets a little bit out of control'' in terms of coronavirus cases.
Pence said at a White House news conference Saturday that a "broad range of measures'' are under consideration.
"But no decisions have been made yet,'' he said.
Asked if people should be traveling, Trump recommended against it.
"If you don't have to travel I wouldn’t do it,'' he said. "We want this thing to end. We don't want a lot of people getting infected.''
Extensive domestic flight restrictions would further cripple an already struggling U.S. airline industry and lead to more flight cuts. Southwest Airlines, the nation's largest domestic carrier, might face a disproportionate hit, though CEO Gary Kelly has already said the airline has seen a "9/11-like" drop in bookings even without serving Asia or Europe.
The talk of domestic travel restrictions comes as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Wednesday issued an unusual advisory on travel within the United States on its website. The headline: "Should I travel within the United States?''
The CDC said it doesn't generally issue advisories or restrictions for travel within the United States but is doing so because cases of COVID-19 have been reported in many states and some areas are experiencing community spread.

The New York Times reports:
In a sharp escalation of tensions between the two superpowers, China announced on Tuesday that it would expel American journalists working for The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal and The Washington Post. It also demanded that those outlets, as well as the Voice of America and Time magazine, provide the Chinese government with detailed information about their operations.
The announcement, made by China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, came weeks after the Trump administration limited to 100 the number of Chinese citizens who can work in the United States for five state-run Chinese news organizations that are widely considered propaganda outlets.
China instructed American journalists for the three news organizations whose press credentials are due to expire this year to “notify the Department of Information of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs within four calendar days starting from today and hand back their press cards within ten calendar days.” Almost all the China-based journalists for the three organizations have press cards that expire this year.
The announcement went on to say that the American journalists now working in mainland China “will not be allowed to continue working as journalists in the People’s Republic of China, including its Hong Kong and Macao Special Administrative Regions.” The two territories are semiautonomous and in theory have greater press freedoms than the mainland.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs said the decisions “are entirely necessary and reciprocal countermeasures that China is compelled to take in response to the unreasonable oppression the Chinese media organizations experience in the U.S.”
The statement also accused the United States of “exclusively targeting Chinese media organizations,” adding that it was “driven by a Cold War mentality.” The new limits imposed by the Trump administration effectively forced 60 Chinese employees of the state-run organizations to leave the country.
Reporters at foreign news outlets in China were among those who aggressively reported on the coronavirus epidemic in January and February, including in its earliest days, when it was a regionalized outbreak in central China and the Chinese government sought to play down its severity.
The news organizations have also reported in the past year on other issues deemed extremely sensitive by Chinese officials, including the mass internment of Muslims in the Xinjiang region and the shadowy business dealings of family members of leaders, including President Xi Jinping.
Dean Baquet, the executive editor of The Times, condemned the expulsion of U.S. reporters in a statement, calling it “especially irresponsible at a time when the world needs the free and open flow of credible information about the coronavirus pandemic.”

He also urged calm among investors after another shaky open on Wall Street Monday .

Fox News reports:
Rob Reiner called for Donald Trump to be removed from office due to his handling of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
The 73-year-old actor and director took to Twitter on Monday to criticize Trump and his administration's response to the coronavirus outbreak that continues to spread throughout the world.
“We will get through this. But unfortunately not with the help of this President,” Reiner wrote. “First he must be removed from the public square to let competent experts take over, then he must be removed from office to allow US to heal.”
Donald Trump has faced harsh rebukes from his detractors both in Hollywood and in politics for seemingly downplaying the severity of the crisis and not equipping the country with adequate leadership or resources to combat the growing threat the virus poses.
The coronavirus pandemic has infected more than 169,000 people and killed more than 6,500. The COVID-19 illness has caused mild or moderate symptoms for most patients, but severe symptoms have been more likely in the elderly or people with existing health problems. More than 77,000 people have recovered from it so far, mostly in China.
This is hardly the first time that Reiner has used his Twitter account to publicly criticize the president and call for his removal from office. In February, he marked Presidents' Daywith a message to his Democratic-leaning followers to vote in the November general election for whoever Trump’s opponent happens to be.


welovetrump--2020-03-17--BREAKING:  IRS Tax Deadline Delayed By 90 Days!

And here 's even more !
In addition to the tax relief , actual checks may be sent out to Americans very soon , according to Mnunchin .
The White House is seeking a stimulus package worth anywhere from $ 850 billion to over $ 1 trillion as the Trump administration looks to battle the economic impact from the coronavirus pandemic , according to a source familiar with the matter .
An administration official said the package could include : • $ 500 billion to $ 550 billion in direct payments or tax cuts • $ 50 billion to $ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Potentially $ 250 billion of the package could go toward making direct payments to Americans , a White House official told The Wall Street Journal on Tuesday .
Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said millionaires are unlikely to be among those who receive relief in the form of direct payment .
“ Americans need cash now , ” Mnuchin said during a White House press briefing on the administration ’ s latest efforts to combat the disease .
“ I mean now in the next two weeks.
” “ The president has instructed me @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ” Mnuchin added .
The White House will now have to negotiate a package with Congress .
The measure will need to balance aiding individuals and workers in need , as well as industries it has already said it wants to support .
The administration has made clear its view that the airline industry as essential .
Trump and Mnuchin have also noted the cruise and hotel industries are facing particular challenges as travel has shut down .
Democrats , though , have made clear that any support to industries must come @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has already been dispute in Congress about paid time-off in a second coronavirus relief bill , which has yet to pass the Senate .
“ Any economic relief should be contingent on the benefits flowing to workers and their families , not CEOs and shareholders , ” Sen. Tom Udall , a New Mexico Democrat , told CNBC .
Mnuchin said that an idea of the administration ’ s plan will come into focus by “ the end of the day ” Tuesday .

And from Bloomberg:
Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin announced that his department is pushing back the April 15 deadline to pay taxes owed, giving individuals and many businesses 90 extra days to send checks to the government.
Individuals can defer up to $1 million of tax liability and corporations get an extension on up to $10 million, Mnuchin said Tuesday at a news conference Tuesday.
“All you have to do is file your taxes,” he said. “You’ll automatically not get charged interest and penalties.”
The payment extension, which affects millions of taxpayers, is part of the Trump administration’s effort to curb the economic effects of the coronavirus pandemic. Mnuchin said the delay will free $300 billion of liquidity in the economy as individuals and businesses have more time to pay their taxes.
Delaying payment requirements will give businesses and individuals nearly three more months to meet their IRS obligations, potentially lessening cash-flow issues that some businesses are facing as many people stay home and spend less money on dining out, entertainment and transportation.
Individuals and businesses will still have to file by April 15, unless they submit paperwork for an automatic six-month extension, Mnuchin told reporters.
“This is a commonsense step to afford individual Americans and businesses access to financial resources they need during this time of economic and social disruption,” Senate Finance Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley said in a statement.
The administration is also considering delaying the estimated quarterly tax payments that self-employed workers and businesses pay the IRS throughout the year, according to two people familiar with the matter. The first payment is typically due April 15.
Wealthier individuals -- ranging from the upper-middle class to the top 1% -- could benefit the most from this move because they are more likely to owe the government money and be able to wait until the filing deadline to submit their returns, said John Koskinen, a former IRS commissioner.
Lower-income workers, especially those who qualify for refundable tax breaks such as the child tax credit and the earned income tax credit, tend to file early because they get a refund check.

In this case, congress has not installed the president’s nominees in the federal government’s various vaccancies.
Due to vacant positions, the administration is limited in its ability to respond to COVID-19, though the president has made strong, decisive decisions nonetheless.

” Wise words from Hillary Clinton that Obama ’ s Attorney General , Eric Holder , appears to have made his new mantra .
During an interview with TIME magazine , Holder stated he views the coronavirus crisis as an “ opportunity ” to change American elections .
Some of his ideas included at-home voting and complete mail-in voting .
What happened to be completely absent from the discussion ?
Any mention of concerns over voter fraud .
This isn ’ t surprising , seeing as Democrats typically don ’ t seem @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out some of the interview from TIME magazine : Democracy doesn ’ t stop in the middle of a pandemic .
From local and state races all the way up to a presidential election in November , Americans will need to figure out how to cast votes in 2020 without risking their health .
Former Attorney General Eric Holder is now the chairman of the National Democratic Redistricting Committee , which focuses on redrawing heavily gerry-mandered districts throughout the country to help Democrats compete where Republicans have safe seats .
He spoke to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ help protect your vote specifically with regard to COVID-19 .
But Holder hopes these reforms will go beyond 2020 : by expanding the number of voting days and providing more mail-in , absentee and at-home voting options , he says , we can permanently make voting more accessible in the United States .
—Tessa Berenson What ’ s the biggest question facing the U.S. about voting during a pandemic ?
We have to ensure that we have a system in place that doesn ’ t make the American people choose between protecting their @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
There shouldn ’ t be a tension between those two .
Do you think in-person voting should be canceled nationwide this year ?
No .
Certain communities and communities of color primarily rely on in-person voting .
We have to provide safe and healthy polling places so that the poll workers and those who want to cast a ballot in person have opportunities to do that while they ’ re protecting themselves .
You want to expand the number of voting days .
Get creative about this .
How important do you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the presidential election and other voting in 2020 ?
There has to be a sea change in our thinking there .
Allow people to access their primary American right by voting at home .
It ’ s not as if this is an untried concept .
Oregon has been doing this for years .
But we have to make sure that we ’ re being sensitive to the needs of poor communities and communities of color by doing things like having prepaid postage on envelopes .
Construct a system so that you ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ ve got expanded at-home voting and expanded no-excuse absentee vote-at-home measures .
Do you think what happened with Wisconsin ’ s primary—where Republican leaders and conservative judges overruled the Democratic governor ’ s attempt to postpone in-person voting—is a harbinger of other voting fights to come this year ?
Absolutely .
Wisconsin is like a microcosm .
It presents questions that the nation as a whole is soon going to have to grapple with .
Critics took to Twitter to blast the former Attorney General for his thoughts :

welovetrump--2020-04-17--City of Los Angeles to Handout Prepaid Debit Cards to Residents, Including Illegal Immigrants

What is with the politicians in the state of California and their infatuation with helping illegal immigrants ?
Just a few days ago , the governor of California announced the creation of a $ 125 million fund specifically for aiding illegal immigrants .
Now , perhaps in an effort to upstage the governor , the mayor of Los Angeles , Eric Garcetti has announced that LA residents that meet specific income requirements will be eligible for prepaid debit cards .
The kicker here is that immigration status will not be a factor in determining if an individual is eligible for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the prepaid debit cards will range form a $ 700 minimum to a $ 1,500 maximum depeneding on household size .
Could the Golden state become anymore crazy ?
Most Americans would probably agree we shouldn ’ t be handing over cash to those who broke the law and have no business being in this country .
Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti announced a privately funded campaign Monday to help impoverished Angelenos who may be facing at least one more month of lost income by supplying them with free , prepaid debit cards @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the program , dubbed the Angeleno Card , appeared to be swamped and unable to process the demand as soon as the application period opened Tuesday morning .
Garcetti said that was due to overwhelming demand , but the website was back up again by Tuesday evening .
A staggering 56,000 applications were submitted on the first day , according to Garcetti .
“ Don ’ t worry if you haven ’ t gotten through , because there ’ s two more days still , ” he said .
The no-fee debit card @ @ @ @ @ @ @ household income fell below the federal poverty line before the COVID-19 crisis began and who had their income reduced by at least another 50 % due to the outbreak .
The cards will come with $ 700 , $ 1,100 or $ 1,500 , depending on the size and income of each household , a news release stated .
Assistance from the federal government isn ’ t enough and won ’ t reach enough residents , Garcetti said in his daily coronavirus address Monday night .

KTLA originally broke the news:
Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti announced a privately funded campaign Monday to help impoverished Angelenos who may be facing at least one more month of lost income by supplying them with free, prepaid debit cards. A website and phone number for the program, dubbed the Angeleno Card, appeared to be swamped and unable to process the demand as soon as the application period opened Tuesday morning. Garcetti said that was due to overwhelming demand, but the website was back up again by Tuesday evening. A staggering 56,000 applications were submitted on the first day, according to Garcetti. “Don’t worry if you haven’t gotten through, because there’s two more days still,” he said. The no-fee debit card is available to city residents whose total household income fell below the federal poverty line before the COVID-19 crisis began and who had their income reduced by at least another 50% due to the outbreak. The cards will come with $700, $1,100 or $1,500, depending on the size and income of each household, a news release stated. Assistance from the federal government isn’t enough and won’t reach enough residents, Garcetti said in his daily coronavirus address Monday night. Cash assistance to families is “exactly what’s needed right now,” the mayor said.

Turns out President Trump isn’t the only one who thinks CNN is fake news.
Elon Musk has swung back at CNN after the network reported that he never delivered ventilators to hospitals in California.
During the outbreak of the novel coronavirus, Tesla was one of the few corporations that announced that it would produce ventilators to make sure there wasn’t a shortage in the United States.
In Italy, the massive wave of COVID-19 cases overwhelmed the healthcare system and resulted in ventilator rationing.
Leaders in the U.S. were determined to make sure that did not happen here.
Tesla, at the directive of Elon Musk, quickly built and delivered 1,000 ventilators throughout the state of California.
But that didn’t stop CNN from running a story claiming that Musk never delivered on his promise.
Musk struck back hard, saying that he was “surprised CNN still exists.”

welovetrump--2020-04-17--West Virginia Senator Manchin Flip Flops, Says He Will Now Support Biden for President

Senator Manchin was one of the few Democrats who said that Hunter Biden was relevant to the impeachment hearings .
He is long considered a `` swing senator , '' and many wonder whether his endorsement of Biden is a barometer for what other swing voters are thinking .
The Hill reports that Biden 's 48 percentage point win in the West Virginia primary may have tilted Manchin 's endorsement : Manchin has been thinking about endorsing Biden since the South Carolina primary in March , where Biden took more than 48 percent of the vote in what was then @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Virginia share similar concerns as those in South Carolina , where the energy sector carries the economy .
Manchin didn ’ t endorse Obama ’ s campaign , and in 2016 he nearly took back his endorsement of Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton after she called for an end to coal mining .
He was also one of a slew of Democratic senators who were vocally uncomfortable about the prospect of Sen. Bernie Sanders ( I-Vt. ) winning the nomination , according to the news outlet .
“ I ’ m just trying to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ through a plan , ” he said .
“ I ’ ve been working and talking to different people .
We ’ re definitely getting there .
You just can ’ t leave people behind that did the heavy lifting and that ’ s worked hard , whether it ’ s producing coal or producing energy for this country .
They just need an opportunity to live their lives and have that opportunity .
And I think Joe Biden understands that.
” Manchin ’ s endorsement comes after Biden became the presumptive nominee @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
The West Virginia primary is scheduled for June , and though Sanders is no longer in the race , he is still hoping to gather enough delegates to garner some leverage and push Biden toward a more progressive platform at the Democratic National Convention .
While the chips are falling on the playing board , 2020 has shown us that a lot can change in just a few weeks .
Joe Biden 's selection for his running mate , for example , will also impact whether Biden is seen as a moderate @ @ @ @ @ @ @ President Trump 's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic has shown that he can unite both parties in protecting American lives and livelihoods .
While previous stimulus packages were partisan affairs , President Trump was able to ensure that American workers and businesses got the support they need to survive .
Time will tell if Senator Manchin 's endorsement will be able to eat into Trump 's 42 percentage point hold on the state .

West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin has changed his mind.
After initially stating that he could vote for President Trump, Manchin says that he will now support former Vice President Joe Biden in the 2020 race.
Manchin, a Democrat, voted to remove Trump from office during the impeachment hearing in the Senate.
Eyes were focused on Manchin’s vote after he announced in the fall that he could not and would not support Bernie Sanders for president, if he got the nomination.
Manchin’s support for Biden comes as a surprise, as Trump has been in the spotlight during the COVID-19 response while Biden has hunkered down inside his home.
